Says the guy is a master sergeant (anyone making it through West Point would be an officer), and master sergeants typically have seen some shit. Either the guy was a desk jockey, or from a reserve unit or something, because I would expect a typical E8 to have some situational awareness of what goes on around the base, including all of the event in the video story.
The teller might not have given all the details to make the story clearer - maybe to protect some of the individuals.
I was gonna say the same thing, he's talking about this Master Sergeant like he's some baby-faced 2nd Lieutenant or a fucking Private/PFC who just got dropped into country yesterday. Among the enlisted, a Master Sergeant has seen pretty much everything... anything they haven't seen, they've heard a thousand times, we're talking about an E8 here.
I've seen a lot of incompetent officers rise through the ranks, but enlisted guys... generally, the ones that make it to those upper ranks know their shit and are extremely competent, sometimes so overly competent that officers will depend on them to handle officer duties.
I will say that I know a few different types of duty assignments though, for example, an Air Force E8 might be nowhere near as raw guts as an Army E8.
And I heard lots of stories about National Guard / Reserve advancement being based on years rather than actual experience, and it seems that retard Tim Walz made it to E9 with pretty much zero practical experience.
At some point, both the National Guard and Reserve units were called up to go to Iraq and Afghanistan during the early 2000s. This could be a story of such a desk jockey being thrown into actual combat conditions.
This could be further validated by the threat to write everybody up - as a combat hardened E8 would probably just tell them to cut the shit and walk off. Seems like only a desk jockey type would resort to threats in a combat zone.
The write-up threat reeked of a very young officer who still feels like he needs to prove himself. No E8 is going to write you up for a joke. This wasn't even a joke, just talking about what happened.
Those upper ranks of enlisted have some of the filthiest mouths/minds out of anyone you'll ever meet. It tends to rub off on the enlisted men around them. If you told the Master Sergeant I served with "Yo, I've got visual on a guy fucking a donkey", he'd say "Where?! Get me some fucking glasses, NOW!" He'd then stare through his 'nocs, still as a statue for several seconds. And then, you see his shoulders shaking as he tries to hold in his laughter. He then turns, and says "boys, we got a free show tonight, go get your glasses".
During the Cold War units in Germany had a higher priority for manpower than units going to Vietnam.
So you ended up with MSG's and SGM's that did their whole service either state-side or in Europe and had never deployed to combat for the entire 10 years of the VN war.
I spent almost my entire career in SF (half my first team were multi-tour VN vets, and some of the guys in my unit were already legendary dudes) and it wasn't until I went to Ft. Knox in 1984 for BNCOC that I met a CSM, with 20 years TIS, that DIDN'T have a CIB, combat patch, any combat ribbons, or any overseas combat deployment ribbons.
So how stupid you are about some things depends a lot on just where you happen to be standing at the time. Thems what have seen, know. Thems what ain't, don't.
I knew a guy who was an air force S.F. in Iraq who had some disgusting stories about how much Iraqi shepherds loved their goats. I don't think I've ever seen a Filipino so disgusted with anything before.
Well, a lot of it happens because they're used to being able to eat however they want, and the job will burn their calories for them. Then they get out and don't burn those calories but still eat however they want. It adds up.
It isn't funny, those vermin do fuck farm animals, know what's worse is that pieces of shit like the guy in the video would use their IR lasers and aim them at those farm animals till they would scream.
The amount of street justice over there and anywhere majority Muslim is crazy. They will stone someone they don't even know, or watch beheaddings, distribute videos of the same as well.
